    My big gamble this week was to bring in Siem de Jong. I see FFS have oicked him in their Scoutpicks this week. Here's hoping...

    See above. Siem de Jong at Newcastle. Making his full debut and Newcastle have a good run of fixtures coming up.

    De Jong could be a good shout. Tadic from Southampton also looks like a player who'll rack up good points and has a nice fixture list.

    Really tempted to wildcard.

    Any thoughts on thisScreenshot_2014_08_29_14_20_35.png

    Defense is atrocious but it's a nice looking attack. It leaves me with nothing in the bank. It leaves me with just one Chelsea player. I have two Newcastle defenders. But otherwise I'd be happy with it.
    If I don't do this I'll probably lose 0.2 tonight when Begovic and Isgrove drop.

    Any thoughts?

    Bump!
    Any opinions on this team? Adebayor will not be captain by the way!
    Selling Begovic, Fletcher, Rooney, Costa, Isgrove, Cahill, Clyne

    Still have 1 free transfer.

    Current Team:

    Gk: De Gea, Gilks.

    Def: Terry, Debuchy, Pieters, Taylor, Hutton.

    Mid: Fabregas, Mata, Ramsey, Sigurdson, Albrighton.

    Fwd: Rooney, Costa, Naismith.

    Im currently banking the transfer but not very happy with my starting lineup. Alot of players playing away from home. Im thinking of going Costa to Adebayor. Any other ideas for transfers. I have 1.4 in the bank as it stands.

    I'm keeping an eye on him this weekend, he's nicely priced if he does the business.

    A lot of money tied up up front, which is having an effect on your back line. Maybe swap RVP and Sterling for Mata and Sturridge and upgrade Coloccini/Krul so you're not doubling up on Newcastle (maybe hang on to Clyne?)

    Can't be sure on Costa so I've done Costa -> Jovetic; gives me a frontline of Rooney Dzeko Jovetic. Risky doubling up on City attackers I know but their home form on occasions last season was unreal and they looked v good on monday night.

    I like it very similar to my wildcard team. Id do collocini to dummett and duff to a 4.5 defender. Ill also be going with 2 newcastle defensive options I think they are seriously undervalued this year.

    Wildcard team! Still not happy with it but need to sleep....

    Very tempted to go with Aguero AND Jovetic up front instead of Adebayor though as at least i know one of them will have to get me some points! Defence is not great but is not hopeless either.

    Anyone with any final words of wisdom before i pass out and hopefully wake up after the 11:30am deadline:rolleyes:

    I have a decision to make in my defence. Who should I pick between Neil Taylor and van Aanholt?

    I still haven't done it. Got too tired last night and couldn't think straight! I've had a quick look and it appears that team is still possible for me. Going to be on the road from half 9 so need to decide quickly whether or not play this WC..

    Edit: Well b0ll0cks. Adebayor went up last night. It means I can't now play my preferred WC. I'll have to downgrade Coloccini to Dummet and probably keep Duff. On the plus side this will leave me with 0.4 itb.

    did two earlier in the week, sanchez to ramsey and bojan to naismith.
    took the hit to fix my team a little and maybe hold off on the wildcard a bit longer.
